Warui Onna

Based on the concept of portraying a "young villainess who leads the men of the world to ruin" as the main character with a touch of suspense, "Cocktail to Hell" (October 1999, starring Kou Shibasaki ), "Player" (November 1999, starring Ryoko Kuninaka ), "Woman Selling Temptation" (December 1999, starring Kirina Mano ), (January 2000, starring Ayumi Yamaguchi ), "Loose Socks Detective" (February 2000, starring Aya Hirayama ), and "Shuffle" (March 2000, starring Rei Yoshii, Wakana Sakai, and Reina Asami ) were produced in an omnibus format with four complete stories per month over a six-month period. One of these stories, "Loose Socks Detective," would later become the prototype for the " Keitai Tantei Keisatsu Sengata Series. The main cast of each film included young actresses such as Kou Shibasaki, Ryoko Kuninaka, Aya Hirayama, and Wakana Sakai, who were not well known at the time and had little experience appearing in TV dramas.
